How to Remove and Replace a Clock Spring Assembly on 2008 Jeep Commander?

Question

Accepted Answer

Disconnect the negative battery cable connected to the SRS, then give it two minutes to avoid unwanted air bag deployment. Turn the steering wheel toward the center and prevent the column shaft from rotating more. After removing the steering wheel, secure the rotor on the Clock Spring case to hold it centered, since you will put the steering wheel back on later. Move the steering column all the way down and get rid of the upper and lower shrouds from it. Pull off the right multi-function switch from the Clock Spring and then remove the left switch. Loosen and remove the single screw from the face of the Clock Spring to its bracket, then also remove the two screws from its back that secure it to the column bracket. Work the Clock Spring out of the steering column so that you can cut away the three instrument panel wires at their points of contact on the inside of the Clock Spring case.
